Alex: I downloaded swfdump from swfTools.org. What switch(es) would be appropriate for the dump?

Paul, IMO, that would be a surprising level of compression. I suppose it is possible, especially if there is a lot of repeating text content as assets, maybe by linking in every locale known to Flex. Run swfdump on the SWF. Post a link to the results. Then run the performance profiler in Flash Builder or Scout. That's really the only way to get hard data on what is taking so long. -Alex On 2/7/19, 8:09 PM, "Paul Stearns" wrote: I have some fairly large modules, for example one which has a swf file that is 120KB on disk a little over 2,000 lines of mxml & as code combined). When run in the IDE it reports "2,674,599 bytes after decompression." While I am not particularly concerned about the size per se, it does take between 3 & 5 seconds to display the module and start the "Init" (CreationComplete) code.

"Starting >Init" is the first line in the function called by "CreationComplete" on the >module. What could be causing the delay? What can I do to improve things? Is it the expansion of the module? Setting up all the objects? Can I display the panel sooner while it is catching up in the background? This is running on an I7 with a fair amount of memory, and it behaves the same in production as the IDE, time wise. Paul R. Stearns Advanced Consulting Enterprises, Inc. 15280 NW 79th Ct.
